Ministry of Micro,Small & Medium Enterprises
Pending Dues to MSMEs
Micro and Small Enterprises  can file applications in Micro and Small Enterprise Facilitation Councils  for delayed payments. After the application is admitted by the MSEFCs, it becomes a case. As per the information available on the SAMADHAAN Portal from 30.10.2017 to 30.04.2022, the details of total no. of pending applications in Andhra Pradesh  are at Annex-I.
Steps taken by the Government to resolve the said issues are as follows:-
• Under the provisions of the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development  Act, 2006, Micro & Small Enterprises Facilitation Councils  have been set up in the States/UTs to deal with cases of delayed payments of the Micro and Small Enterprises .
• Ministry of MSME launched SAMADHAAN Portal on 30.10.2017  for monitoring of the outstanding dues to the MSEs from the buyers of goods and services.
• The Ministry of MSME created a special sub-portal within Samadhaan Portal on 14.06.2020, after the Aatma Nirbhar Bharat announcements, for reporting the dues and monthly payments by central Ministries/Department/Public Sector Enterprises to MSMEs. Dues of Rs. 1,65,034.09 crore have been paid to MSME vendors by Government Ministries/ Departments/CPSEs from May 2020 till 05th December, 2022.
• The Ministry of MSME has also been urging States/UTs to set up more number of Micro & Small Enterprises Facilitation Councils  for quicker disposal of cases related to delayed payments. The number of MSEFCs has gone up from 79 in 2019-20 to 113 in 2022-23. More than one MSEFC has been set up in Delhi, Jammu & Kashmir, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Punjab, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Telangana and U.
• Government of India has also instructed CPSEs and all companies with the turnover of Rs. 500 Crore or more to get themselves on-boarded on the Trade Receivables Discounting System , an electronic platform for facilitating the discounting of trade receivables of MSMEs through multiple financiers.
• Companies which get supplies of goods or services from Micro & Small Enterprises and whose payment to Micro and Small Enterprises exceeds 45 days from the date of acceptance or the date of deemed acceptance of the goods or services, also need to submit a half yearly return to the Ministry of Corporate Affairs stating the amount of payments due and the reasons of the delay.
